Coromandel Peninsula, Waikato, New Zealand - XL

🌄 Coromandel Peninsula Wooden Ocean Depth Map – A Handcrafted Coastal Masterpiece from Thames to Whangamatā

This expansive wooden depth map captures the full eastern coastline of the Coromandel Peninsula — a region loved for its rugged beauty, golden beaches, and offshore islands. From the coastal town of Thames in the southeast, through Port Jackson in the north, and down to Whangamatā in the southwest, this map brings to life the winding bays, steep drop-offs, and marine-rich waters that define the peninsula.

Offshore, you’ll find the distinctive cluster of islands near the mussel farms, the striking Mercury Islands (including Great Mercury / Ahuahu and Red Mercury) just north of Opito Bay, and the remote Alderman Islands — a rugged, protected group sitting around 20km offshore from Tairua, favoured by divers and fishers for their dramatic underwater terrain.

Designed and built in New Zealand, this large-format map is crafted with precision laser-cut layers of European Birch plywood. Each piece is hand-painted and assembled to highlight the Coromandel’s bathymetry in rich, tactile detail — making it a true statement piece for any space.
